What To Do About Seizures?

Hello, I have a 3 year old toy Aussie about 10 lbs and he has been having more seizures as he has been getting older. What should I do as far as when it happens. How should I hold him, he grows terrified and all I know to do is remain calm and keep him from overly shaking so he wont hurt himself.

So questions;- how should I handle it when it happens (hold him down)?- is there something I can do to prevent it?- does he need to be on medication?- can foods trigger it?- what are things to stay away from to not trigger the seizure (foods, activities, etc.)- how long after the seizure should I let him go back to his normal ways like jumping running playing - he's very clumsy, is this the cause sometimes when he falls off the bed or knocks his head into the wall?- does him being frightened like going to the groomer trigger the attack?
